4 min

Tim describes how the Gilbert Goons operate with apparent police protection, culminating in the murder of teenager Preston Lord at a Halloween party, and the community's outrage that no one has been arrested.

In this bit7 moments
  • Tim explains that Mormons in this Arizona community protect their own and are insular, learning this from Reddit and his cousin's husband.
  • Kids from privileged families in the East Valley are attacking random people, while the community begs them to stop killing children.
  • The cops aren't arresting these wealthy Mormon kids despite the attacks, while Gilbert Arizona is marketed as one of the best places to live.
  • These teenage kids are psychotic sociopaths acting out rap videos, armed with guns and brass knuckles, filming themselves in mansions.
  • At a Halloween party, a kid named Preston Lord gets murdered—he's attacked and stomped to death by the group.
  • After Preston Lord's death, nothing happens; the cops do nothing, supposedly because they're in cahoots with the wealthy parents and the prep school.
  • Tim hesitates about naming the school, worried about litigation, but asks if he can at least say the victim's name.
